    Well done Luke.

    I know how it feels to be on the bench for a while.

    Doesn't take long for the doubts/regrets/depression to set in.

    Here, have a banana

    Congratulations Luke, I hope to have some good news myself later today.

    Maybe it's not so bad up Norf after all.

    Congrats Luke!

    Time to dust off the biros and shine those shoes. No wait, that's a permie thing.

    well done luke...

    and a fine job you've done in keeping that spot on the bench warm, dont forget to replace the cushion for the next one, my renewal is up in a few weeks so i might be needing the spot.

    Not had the misfortune to work in Blackpool, had a Sheffield gig I foolishly packed in at New Year.
    Everyone will have there own experience of the market, sometimes you bounce lucky and cant see what the fuss is about. Personally I have found it tough and next time I am out I am definately going to get some certs I need to just keep up with the market.
    Try to keep busy and keep your confidence up, it can all turn round in one phone call and you are back in business.

    That should be a question at the interview I think.

    I'll find something, I think I've spotted a couple of possiblities anyway.

    My old permie boss phoned last week "fancy coming back we're stacked out with work". I said maybe, my daily rate is... oh no no, permie only he said.

    I'm not that desperate (yet).

    I've only been looking over a week and it's early days for me, but have to admit it doesn't look too good out there.
